Fried Noodles

This morning while sending my girls to school, a delicious aroma of someone cooking sambal was lingering in the morning air. The smell soo delicious that I could not resist thinking about fried noodles. It has been a while since I had a plate of hot fried noodles, malay style. I like my noodles to be a little moist with succulent prawns and plentiful of greens. So during my lunch break, I went to Cold Storage to get all the necessary ingredients and earlier today, we had this for dinner 8-D *burp*

This version is not the exact malay style fried noodles because I used Masters Barbeque Sauce to replace the ketchup and soya sauce.

You can purchase this at Cold Storage or NTUC. The sauce is quite tomato-ish but with more flavour than ketchup.

Method1. Blend onion and chillies into paste2. Heat oil in a wok and fry blended paste till fragrant3. Crush the stock cube and add to the chillie paste, stir till well blend4. Add fish cake slices and prawns and mix till they are cooked5. Add bbq sauce and a little bit of water. Make sure there is some gravy so that the noodles will not be too dry6. Add vegetables followed by noodles and stir them well with other ingredients7. Serve immediately

Linlin, well, almost I should say. To make it close, add a little bit of dark soya sauce and ketchup. I cheated using the stock cube but using ikan bilis and grind it with the onion and fresh chillies will make it tastier.

Made this today with Heinz BBQ sauce, cos thats what I had at hand......instead of prawns I used chicken, cos my mom is allergic to seafood.......Family really liked it cos its not dry and looks very appetizing and "shiny" as my mum put it...hehe...Thanks Zu.
